[Bug 1436940] Re: Atheros wifi 168c:0041(QCA6174) is not supported

 

Miles:
Here's a thread that might explain the situation, more device ID's requiring specific folders for FW.

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2015-August/005752.html

I'm using the Next Kernel, 4.3 rc3, and the chipset you have works fine,
I compiled it using the 3rd section of these instructions. On;y
exception is I did it on my desktop and did not move source to
/usr/src/, which is what Linus recommends, then just install the header
and image deb's with dpkg -i headers.deb FIRST

With a new kernel from; obtained here;
